Scout Drive RS Planned by Washington Area Council
The Washington Area Council of the Boy Scouts of America plans its annual Budget Campaign for March 17 and 18. Under Odello the campaign aims to complete preliminary work by month’s end, with no facility expansions and rapid, unquestioned progress toward stronger scouting ideals of service patriotism and character. The local council cites record registration, more boys in camp, and improved attendance as signs of growing community support and approval.
